Thank you for your support and generosity

Thank you to everyone that has supported the College’s Endowment Fund so far this year.  With your support and generosity, we had a successful end of financial year for both the Wild Indigenous and Mulford Bursaries.

June 30 fundraising has us at halfway to secure an enduring legacy for the Chris Wild (ON 1991) Indigenous Bursary.  This is a fantastic result.  We thank our Community who have united to support the gift matching campaign. 

The aim of the College is to have this Bursary self sufficient and guarantee the opportunity of a Newington education to an indigenous Boy every year, forever.  With your ongoing goodwill and support along with that of current and new Ambassadors, we have the opportunity to award a Wild Bursary every year from 2020. 

June also saw the launch of The Mulford Bursary in honour of our Headmaster Dr David Mulford as he retires this year after leading the College for ten of its most successful years ever.

Again, with your generous support, The Mulford Bursary has reached its first $100,000 and we thank most sincerely those who supported this great cause. Fundraising continues as we strive to reach our $770,000 target. The P&F Ball on 1 September is your next opportunity to support the Mulford Bursary with all proceeds on the night added to the Fund. The first Mulford Bursary holder will begin their Newington journey as soon as our target is reached.

Be it the Wild Indigenous or Mulford Bursary, all donations, great and small, will make a difference.
